udev rule for the Xone 23C; sets configuration to state "2" so this shows up as a 4 input/4 output soundcard - otherwise shows up as only 2 input/2 output. Only tested with the Xone 32C configured for DVS. Put this file in /etc/udev/rules.d/
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="22f0", ATTR{idProduct}=="0008", ATTR{bConfigurationValue}="2"

We have good news thanks to the issue posted at https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=217089, for now a workaround to make the device function is executing the following command as root:

echo Y >/sys/module/usbcore/parameters/old_scheme_first

If I get more information I will keep you informed in this thread.

@pierregermain nice to see that there is progress. I won't be back home until Friday to test it. Thank you for your support

@pierregermain I'm curious and can't wait for Friday. runs with the command the mixer on the rpi4 with mixxx-pi-gen?

Just to let you know @molli1312 : I have tested this on a Dell Laptop.

Hi, i just acquired this great mixer and i have this exact same issue. But the trick to change "old_scheme_first" does not works for me.
I'm on ArchLinux with kernel 6.3.1. Despite "cat [...]/old_scheme_first" reports now correctly 'Y', bNumConfigurations for the Xone reports 1 in lsusb -v, even after unplug/plug again the usb cable.

If i "echo 2 > /sys/bus/usb/devices/3-8/bConfigurationValue" its returns "bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument". In journalctl i can see the udev rule from mixxx applied when plugin the mixer but it fails the same way.

According to the bug report on the kernel bugzilla it seems Ubuntu could have been "patched" its kernel in some way to workaround this.

Any idea ?

Changing the scheme worked like a charm for me. I made the change permanent by following this StackExchange answer. Thanks @pierregermain !

@molli1312 All right, after a "reboot" of the mixer it now works as expected, i see correctly 4 channels in Mixxx.

Thank you man!

As a side note, in my setup at least, it is important to unplug the USB cable as well then reconnect only after the mixer is on. If the USB cable stay connected, the device is not recognized at all:

It seems an udev rule related to sound card initialization fails.
Once the system fall into this issue, whatever i do (unplug, replug, reboot the mixer) the device is not recognized. The only solution i found is to reboot the kernel. I'll look more further at this issue then report here if i find something interresting.
